Using Talkback
MBOX Studio provides a built-in Talkback mic on the top panel. This Talkback mic can be mixed just like any other hardware of hard-
ware input (click to select an Output mix then adjust Talkback), processed with and can be routed to Pro Tools to be recorded. High-pass
filtering and limiting is applied to the Talkback input signal. This allows audio sources of varying distances from the mic to be heard
clearly. The Talkback mic can also be used as the input source for the tuner (for more information, see Using the Tuner).
Once configured, Talkback can be opened (unmuted) and closed (muted) using the top panel
TALK button, a footswitch, or a
User button.
To set up Talkback:
1 In MBOX Control, choose a Hardware Output for Talkback (such as a headphone mix).
2 Set Talkback level by doing the following:
•In the
Hardware Input section, select the Talkback strip.
• Start talking and adjust Talkback
Gain (in Channel Focus), pan, or other parameters as desired.
3 Repeat for any other mixes you want to include Talkback.
To use Talkback:
1 On MBOX Studio, press TALK. The button lights green.
A single press of TALK opens Talkback.
2 Press again to close (mute) the Talkback channel. You can also press and hold TALK and it will disengage (close) after a 2 second
hold time.
To slate (record Talkback):
1 In Pro Tools, create a mono audio track and assign its input to Talkback (mono). If you do not see this choice in the Input selector
for a mono audio track, check I/O Setup.
2 Record enable the track, and click the Record button in the Transport controls to arm Pro Tools for recording.
3 When ready, press Play to begin recording.
